After Buying a Cat Slave, I Become Obsessed with Eavesdropping on Her Thoughts

In a world where tomorrow's bread is never certain and demi-humans are sold like livestock, Reiner makes a daring purchase: a cat-type demi-human whose talent outshines her tragic circumstances. A...

Chapter 168 Expanding Business (2/2)

Peggy paused for a second before speaking slowly, "That's about 964 gold coins. I don't know the exact purchasing power..."

Junice said, "Don't worry, it's definitely better than Diast's currency."

Reiner unfolded the map and looked at it.

Although Rossno is a neighboring country of Diast, in order to reach there, one must cross Diast's territory.

The total distance is about seven thousand miles, and the road conditions are unknown. Not counting the time spent on purchasing slaves, it is estimated that it will take about two months to make the trip.

Reiner subconsciously glanced at her slightly bulging belly, but his gaze was easily noticed by Junice.

"What? Are you worried about me? Don't worry, it's okay." Junice put her hands on her hips and laughed happily, "It's okay to ride a horse."

"Why don't you stay in Cannon? I'll let Martina stay with you. She doesn't like to go out anymore anyway, and she's not even active in sleeping."

Before Reiner could say anything, Martina, who was sitting cross-legged beside him, objected, "No! I want to be with you, too... But first things first, I'm going to miss you if I don't see you for two months."

After hearing what Martina said, Junice also unlocked new ideas.

She pretended to be weak and leaned into Reiner's arms, then said aggrievedly, "Dear, do you really want to abandon your pregnant wife and go to a foreign country for a month?"

Reiner fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Lailisi stepped forward to help: "It's okay, I can take care of you in your place. Although I also want to stay with you, it's only for two months. I can endure this time."

Junice waved her hand and refused, "No demon."

Reiner sighed, thought for a moment, and then continued, "In that case, let's wait until you give birth before setting off. We can do something else during these seven months."

Junice was anxious. She grabbed Reiner's shoulders and shook him vigorously. "Don't be sad, Reiner! Look at the peasant women here. They will go to work even if they are pregnant."

She hugged Reiner and started to act coquettishly: "Please, Reiner, take me with you. I haven't been home for a long time. I miss my hometown a little bit."

Reiner pinched her soft cheeks and shook them from side to side. "You're bragging again. I've never heard you miss home before, and now you suddenly miss it?"

Junice pouted: "That's what I want to do... Then I will follow you obediently and there will be no trouble."

Peggy came to Reiner and said, "Take me with you when the time comes. The south of the continent is my hometown. I escaped from there. Maybe I can be of help to you."

Bring Pasha and Eudora along, we'll explore the trade route and get them familiar with it; they might be useful later."

Reiner nodded. In that case, he had to take them all with him.

He couldn't possibly leave the helpless company employees here. After all, if he wasn't there, there would be no one to take charge of, and if anything went wrong, everything would be over.

It wouldn't cost much to buy two carriages and take them both with you, so it wouldn't matter if you took them with you.

Reiner looked around at the group and said, "Alright, everyone go pack your bags. We'll probably leave the day after tomorrow and arrive here in two and a half months."

Everyone went to their respective rooms to pack up.

He took the opportunity to slip out the door and headed towards Fiona's house...
